Work Life)

Who Am I?I am your constant companion.
I am your greatest helper or heaviest burden.
I will push you onward or drag you down to failure.
I am completely at your command.
Half the things you do you might as well just turn over to me and I will be able to do them quickly and correctly.
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 3
Who Am I?I am easily managed – you must
merely be firm with me.
Show me exactly how you want something done and after a few lessons I will do it automatically.
I am the servant of all great individuals and, alas, of all failures as well.
Those who are great, I have made great.
Those who are failures, I have made failures.
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 4
Who Am I?
I am not a machine, though I work with all the precision of a machine plus the
intelligence of a human.
You may run me for a profit or run me for ruin – it makes no difference to me.
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 5
Who Am I?
Take me, train me, be firm with me, and I will place the world at your feet.
Be easy with me and I will destroy you.
